ESSENTIALS Lip Care Balm SPF 10 15 ml

Lip balm

Quick help for chapped lips. With delicate vanilla fragrance.

Immediate help for rough and chapped lips. The special care complex of shea butter, mimosa butter, safflower oil and the extract of the balloon vine conjures from chapped lips in an instant again soft and supple. UVA and UVB filters as well as vitamin E help to prevent light-induced skin aging of the sensitive mouth area.

Active ingredients:

UVA filter: protects against the longer-wave UV rays that accelerate skin aging.

Balloon Vine: (Cardiospermum halicacabum) is an annual climbing plant native to India. Its seeds are pea-sized and heart-shaped, hence the Latin name "Cardiospermum", which means "heart seed". The use of Cardiospermum against itchy skin is known from dermatology. The extract is effective against dry, itchy skin, soothes the skin and harmonizes irritated skin.

UVB filter: protects against the short-wave UV rays that cause sunburn.

Beeswax: (Cera alba) is a natural wax produced by honey bees. It is almost insoluble in water and thus protects especially sensitive skin from moisture loss. Beeswax was already known in ancient times almost 2000 years ago in skin care and its softening effect was appreciated.

Safflower oil: is obtained by pressing the ripe seeds of the safflower (Carthamus tinctorius). Safflower - also called false saffron because of its intensely yellow-red colored petals - is an ancient cultivated plant from the Near East and Central Asia. In ancient times, the red dye was used to color fabrics. The light yellow, light oil is characterized by a particularly high linoleic acid content (up to 80%). This doubly unsaturated essential fatty acid belongs to the group of omega-6 fatty acids. Linoleic acid has a stabilizing effect on the cell membranes in the skin and has strong anti-inflammatory properties.

Shea butter: from the nuts of the West African shea butter tree (Butyrospermum parkii) contains vitamins A and E. Shea butter has excellent protective properties and prevents the skin from drying out. It is excellent for skin with increased care requirements.

Vitamin E: provides active cell protection as a powerful antioxidant, has been shown to increase the moisture content of the skin and smooth the skin's texture.

Mimosa wax: is extracted from the flowers of the silver acacia (Acacia decurrens). According to a patented manufacturing process, the mimosa wax is combined with jojoba and sunflower wax to form a vegetable butter with an affinity for water. This plant butter moisturizes, strengthens the skin's barrier function and reduces transepidermal water loss (TEWL). The micro-relief is smoothed - for a pleasantly soft skin feeling.

Olive wax: is produced by a special process from olive oil as a vegetable butter with an affinity for water. This vegetable butter moisturizes and strengthens the skin's barrier function.

Echium oil: is cold pressed from the seeds of the adder head (Echium plantagineum). It has an anti-inflammatory effect and protects the skin barrier.

Application: Apply several times a day on the lips. Absorbs quickly and can also be used under lipstick.
